Carver Commodore ~ Cheap 52

AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Carver Commodore Alabama probably isn’t the first place music critics think of when they recall the indie rock greats, but this left-of-center approach gives Carver Commodore an intriguing edge. CARVER draws on inspiration from greats like The Strokes and contemporaries like Wallows, but does it with just enough distance from the NYC scene that you can tell there’s something different behind their songs, even if you can’t place what exactly. CARVER is the latest release for a band that simply can’t, and won’t, stop. “It’s 100% Carver Commodore. We entered this record with the following theme: ‘Let’s just be ourselves. Just play what comes naturally, don’t overthink it, and have fun.” Cheap 52 Spotify | Instagram

Smushie

AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Smushie Smushie is the solo effort and childhood nickname of songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Austin Koenigstein. A New Yorker by origin, Koenigstein moved to Chicago in 2019, where he has since distinguished himself with a volcanic live act and a torrent of self-produced material. Smushie’s music strikes at conventions of genre and tribe, at once casting an R&B pocket against wailing CBGB vocals, at any given show transforming folk numbers into pounding four-on-the-floor booty-busters, with the aid of searing guitar lines and a towering rhythm section. Rich in both humor and urgency, his songs leap into confrontation, touching on class divides, loss of innocence, bad-faith clowns, surreal landscapes, and the nuclear potential of a good time. His shows are, above all, fun. In 2023, Smushie released his debut album, Doofus Casanova, quickly following it up with two EPs and a collaborative LP. His sophomore solo full-length record is slated for release in early 2025. Website · Bandcamp · Facebook · YouTube · Instagram · Apple Music · Spotify

AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 8:00 PM The Back Alley The Back Alley stemmed from the solo recording project of lead singer Ralph Porter who wrote songs such as ‘Your Love’ and ‘Flower Girl’ before the band was formed in 2022. Now a 5-piece independent rock band based in Chicago, Illinois, the band is a hybrid of Ax and The Hatchetmen’s members Hunter Olshefke (Bass), and Sal Defilippis (Guitar), who have joined forces with Jaden Cone (Guitar), Ralph Porter (Vocals), and Ben Kremer (Drums) to perform and record original music while still paying homage to their singers past discography by performing completely new takes on his songs at their live shows. The bands debut EP ‘Live From Picture-Minded Studio’ marked a major transition for the band as they begin to move from the “bedroom pop” vibes of Porter’s solo work into a more guitar-heavy indie rock approach with songs such as “Gump”, “Lightning” while still including the new takes on his original music as part of the EP. The band has started to find their own rhythm within their new songs ‘Brand New’ and ‘Grey Skies’ leading the way. After carving their path in the Midwest scene in 2023 and 2024 with new music and shows at iconic venues such as Lincoln Hall and Park West, the band is ready to take on 2025. The bands latest single ‘Shaking Off The Snow’ will be released on March 20th as they kick off their first tour together. Geskle
